Howard S. Morehouse

Howard Stanley Morehouse (1854-) was an employee of the Davis Overland Despatch Co. of the American West during the late 19th century. In 1899, his stagecoach was robbed by members of the O'Driscoll Gang along the Dakota River, and his driver William V. Ettinger was shot dead. The masked outlaws attempted to force Morehouse to open the wagon's trunk for them, but they were shot dead by Arthur Morgan, who was on his way to Blackwater. Morehouse then thanked Morgan and suggested that he rob the wagon, as it would be declared robbed anyways.
